For whatever reasons, many people are looking for a new job. They may have wanted to find executive careers, and move up the ranks to vice president jobs. There are many executive jobs out there still, but you really have to do some homework, improve your job skills, and prepare yourself carefully.

First thing is to decide what you want to do. Are executive jobs in your future, or are you interested in other upper management careers? You need to really sit down and do a hard look at yourself. You may find that there are things you need to do before looking for that job. One of them may be that you need to take some classes, to improve your career skills. There are many community colleges, and tech schools that offer many affordable courses, typing classes, PR work shops as well as many others.

Now it may have been awhile since your last career move, and you should take another look at your resume. You probably will need to update it, since you have more experience and education now. You can struggle with trying to recreate your resume and cover letter yourself, but the real concern here is that things may have changed so much that the format of your resume is no longer considered acceptable. There are many professional writing services that have a vast knowledge of how to present your resume that will make potential employers stand and take notice.



This is really important in today's world of Internet applications. People who are looking to hire for executive careers get inundated with new applicants every day. Most employers don't have the time to go over each one and many end up in the garbage without as much as a second glance. This is why you need a good cover letter, describing briefly your job skills, and what your education is. Many companies use software when going over resumes that look for any key word that relates to their business. A good snappy cover letter, one that is short, but to the point, may mean the difference between getting an interview, or your hard work going straight into the waste basket.

The next step really is to do some foot work. One way would be to go online and find out what jobs are available, both locally and out of your region. If you live in a small town, you may find little in your area of expertise, and you may have to move somewhere where there is more opportunity. Many people network online to try to find something in your field. Keep in touch with people you know who are still working in the field, this is sometimes the best way to find a job in your sector, since some employers don't even post any job opportunities at all, and rely on their employees to suggest people they know.

You can find many resources online to help you. There are many resume services and career networking sites. Keep in touch at least by email with friends and colleagues, and not just when you need something. Let them know that you are still interested in finding work, and you can even let them know what you have been doing, like taking classes, and improving your resume.
